Nike zoom vapor 9 tour questions

I just wanted to find out a couple of things about the ZM9T before I went ahead and bought a pair.

Firstly, Im a fast and powerful mover on the court and have previously been a fan of the courtballistecs and barricades due to their impressive stability. Does the ZM9T offer good stability? As I really do not want to roll an ankle. Ive heard stories about the vapor tipping over and I want to find out if this really is the case.

I would also like to know about the sizing. I wear a size 12 US in the courtballistec 3.3 and a size 11.5 US in the barricade 7. Does anybody have any recommendations on what size I should get in the vapor 9 tour?
Much thanks for any advice.

Sure he can. He's a keyboard warrior. Probably has some petty bone to pick with Nike.

So you exposed your bias. You wear out ALL shoes sliding - none of them will survive very long.

You're really going to start an argument when you've missed the point entirely? Come on man, be better than that.

I don't have a bone to pick with Nike. I'm happy with their product aside from the increase in price compared to their pre-2012 offerings. I've accepted that the Vapor line isn't going to last, and very few shoes will be as durable as they advertise to be simply because of the way I skid and slide.

Now, back to my original point. I gave the initial suggestion that the Vapor won't be durable at all, especially if they were to be compared to the Ballistec and Barricade line. Using my Vapor 8 as an example, I said it didn't last long for me and where I was pre-maturely wearing the shoes. It was then countered with the Vapor 9 being "completely different". And I simply said that the Vapor 9 isn't anymore durable than the Vapor 8. That was my point. If I'm wrong about the durability, then prove me wrong, because so far, Vapor 9 users are reporting the same minimum durability consistent with Vapor's history.

You sound like a keyboard warrior, do you have a petty bone to pick with me? Whether you do or not, pick on the author's original argument, instead of fabricating one of your own just to argue about.

You've already been proven wrong. There are as many people stating the V9s last just as long as those complaining.

Nice comeback. You obviously aren't better than that. Troll harder.

Still don't know what you've got against me, but hey if you need someone to boost your self esteem, yeah go for it. If you tell me it's that time of the month, I'll acknowledge it too.

Vapor 9 don't last, simple as that. I'd like to see you make an argument in which Vapor 9 is a durable shoe. People stating Vapor 9 lasting just as long as those who complain about it durability setback? Pull those people up. How do they wear it? How much court time is spent on an individual pair?

ugh, i tweaked my ankle last monday, happened to be the first day i wore the vapor 9's. Don't get me wrong, gsoat in the comfort department but for some reason they got rid of the "fed wedge design" that dates back to the vapor 4's and all of their performance level tennis shoes since then. Feel a slight difference from the breathe 2k11s, which has the extra 1/8" of rubber protruding from the side. I'll get over it, i just don't understand why they did it.
